Holy meta-leaks, Batman!

If I read this article correctly, and there is plenty of complexity in the story to give some room for error, so please forgive, it appears that Liberal MP Wayne Easter wants the RCMP to investigate the leak that might have revealed Scott Brison's leak to the media about Ralph Goodale's income trust announcement.

Read that again, it makes sense within the limits of my prose ability.

Easter goes on:
"The real issue here now is how could the minister of public security allow either out of his office or the RCMP's offices a leak that could undermine the credibility of a potential leadership contender," Easter said in an interview with PoliticsWatch.com.
It looks to me like the Opposition senses blood in the water and is just trying to pile as much crap on the Conservatives as it can because they smell weakness.

Seriously, though, if I was a Liberal (yeah, right) I would rather that stuff like this comes out before Brison becomes a leading contender in a leadership contest. If I was a Conservative (shudder at the thought!), I would be more liable to hug this information and let it slip after the contestants are all lined up.

Besides, Wayne, this is just saving the Liberal party the embarassment of voting a Tory in as leader. Please tell me you guys aren't serious about Belinda.

I find it interesting that Wayne Easter doesn't seem to be upset that the Ministry of Public Security would have information pertaining to a theoritically arms length RCMP information, he's upset that the info got leaked. Says a lot on how the Liberals think the RCMP should have been run. Of course, maybe he's still carrying a grudge against the RCMP for the way they torpedoed the Liberals by announcing the investigation into Goodale during the campaign.

Of course the Liberals are serious about Belinda - she's a STAR! Just think of her as Canada's answer to Paris Hilton.
